Engine Option Code Label

CDP47476 A.1

In addition to the serial number plate, OEM engines have an engine option code label affixed to the rocker arm cover. These codes indicate
which of the options were installed on your engine at the factory. When in need of parts or service, furnish your authorized servicing dealer or
engine distributor with these numbers. The first two digits of each code identify a specific group, such as an alternator. The two last digits of each
code identify one specific option provided on your engine, such as a 12 volts, 55 amperes alternator. If an engine is ordered without a particular
component, the last two digits of that functional group option code will be 9.
